LOS GATOS, CA –June 22, 2018. For the 9th consecutive year, Sereno Group has been named one of the best places to work in the greater Bay Area by the Bay Area News Group in its prestigious Top Workplaces 2018 list.

“We are tremendously honored to be recognized as a Top Workplace for the 9th consecutive year,” said Trapani, “We have always strived to create a place where people feel good and understand the deeper purpose of our mission. The recognition is a testament to the efforts of everyone within Sereno Group to be part of something greater than the individual.”
